These ring low silver on my ATPro but don't set off my pin pointer-any thoughts of what they are?

Thanks!

Southernrelics, I see you are relatively a newcomer to TreasureNet (29 posts at the moment). So here's a friendly heads-up. The What-Is-it forum's atmosphere is generally more "scholarly" than other T-Net categories, but it too has its Humor contingent. Please do not feel insulted when somebody seems to reply jokingly to a What-Is-It request. (I'm not sure whether Crispin was joking, or not.)

Your finds which you say "ring low silver on my ATPro" are of course not teeth. They appear to be either a metal-based concretion or perhaps metal "slag," or coal-clinkers.

They are a pain in the butt if you're beach hunting! What I have been told and believe they are is flakes off of the numerous drain pipes up and down the coast line. Sometimes they are brittle enough to crumble in your hand. Happy New Year!

Cast iron pieces from old steel shipwrecks. They are all over some areas of the beach.
